Lionel Messi Faces Massive Off-Field Challenge, Family Shuts Down Rumours

Lionel Messi's father, Jorge Messi, is currently going through a health-related situation and is under medical supervision, recovering and progressing well, informed the football icon's family on Thursday. During his side's FIFA World Cup campaign opener for defending Argentina against Algeria on Wednesday, Messi was seen in tears after scoring, which he later said was because of "something unrelated to the game". "It was something totally unrelated to sport. I had some difficult, complicated days.

'We Were Told Not To Take Sunny-Dimple's Pics Together,' Reveals Paparazzo

Veteran paparazzo Ramakant Munde shared inside details of how photographers accessed celebrities before paparazzi culture and social media began. Recalling an unwritten rule from that era, Munde said they were told not to photograph Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol together.

Munde recalled that instructions would come whenever the two were present at the same location. "There was a message among photographers that if they were together, we shouldn't take pictures. Usually someone from their team would come and tell us, or there would be a signal indicating that photographs were not wanted," he said. In an era before omnipresent paparazzi and ...

Restaurant Recovery: Macquarie Has Picked Winners, And Jubilant Isn't On The List

India's quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry is showing early signs of demand recovery, but Macquarie highlights rising costs and intensifying competition from food-delivery aggregators as reasons for its cautiousness. According to Macquarie, post-fourth-quarter trends indicate a gradual improvement in dine-in demand across restaurant chains. Within the sector, Macquarie remains most constructive on franchise operators Devyani International, Sapphire Foods and Westlife Foodworld. However, the recovery remains uneven and is being overshadowed by inflationary pressures and the growing dominance of delivery platforms such as Zomato and Swiggy. The brokerage said same-store sales growth across the listed QSR universe is tracking broadly in line with or slightly ahead of fourth-quarter levels. However, restaurant brands continue to trail delivery aggregators in growth, highlighting a structural shift in consumer behaviour. To counter this trend, restaurant operators have increa...

Curacao defended with their lives as Germany raided the Curacao box in hordes.
